Overview:
The Lustau Dry Oloroso Don Nuño is a quintessential expression of Oloroso Sherry, crafted by a five-time World Champion fortified wine producer. The name "Oloroso," meaning "scented" in Spanish, aptly captures its aromatic complexity. Made from Palomino grapes and fortified to halt the development of flor yeast, this Sherry undergoes oxidative ageing to achieve its profound depth. With its rich, nutty character and exceptional versatility, it is a staple for those seeking the pinnacle of Sherry craftsmanship. Its longevity allows it to remain fresh for weeks once opened, making it a practical yet luxurious choice.
Tasting Notes:
Aromatic notes of smoked walnut and dark chocolate draw you in, while the palate reveals a beautifully balanced richness. Bright acidity enlivens flavours of bittersweet chocolate, dried figs, and roasted nuts, creating a symphony of taste. The finish is long, smooth, and satisfyingly complex. Ideal as a pairing for aged cheeses, venison, game birds, or as a contemplative finale to any meal.
